When a Vitamin C (ascorbic acid; MM = 176.12 g mol-1) tablet is crushed, dissolved and titrated with 0.0340 M KIO3(aq) to a purple/blue endpoint (given by a starch indicator), the volume of KIO3 used is 29.80 mL. If 60 mg of ascorbic acid is the recommended dietary allowance (i.e., 100% of the RDA), then what is the % RDA for the Vitamin C in the tablet? KIO3(aq) + 5 KI + 6 H+ → 3 I2(aq) + 3 H2O I2 (aq) + ascorbic acid → 2 I- + dehydroascorbic acid

Answer questions a through c: a. A CHEM 1215L student prepares a dilute solution of sodium hydroxide, NaOH(aq), starting with 6 M sodium hydroxide. She then titrates a 1.372 g sample of KHP with the dilute sodium hydroxide solution, NaOH (aq), to a phenolphthalein end point. If the titration required 21.84 mL of sodium hydroxide, NaOH(aq), calculate the molar concentration of the sodium hydroxide solution, NaOH (aq). (Remember that KHP is potassium hydrogen phthalate KHC8H4O4, NOT potassium hydrogen phosphorus!) b. The student uses the same sodium hydroxide to titrate 10.00 mL of vinegar to a phe- nolphthalein end point. If the titration required 27.48 mL of sodium hydroxide, NaOH (aq), calculate the molar concentration of acetic acid, HC2H3O2 (aq), in the vinegar. c. Calculate the mass percent of acetic acid, HC2H3O2 (aq), in the vinegar using the mo- lar concentration for acetic acid, HC2H3O2 (aq), determined in part band assuming the density of the solution is 1.01 g/mL.
